Overcoming Folly - 40 - The Great Oath

Overcoming Folly - Part 40 "The Great Oath" With Rabbi Ari Sollish (Recorded live at the Intown Jewish Academy on December 5, 2021) The Talmud describes in meticulous detail the pre-birth state of the fetus. And it's fascinating! Not so much the fetus's physical development -- for that we have medical and scientific knowledge. No, what's really incredible is the Talmud's description of the spiritual development of the fetus. The entirety of this spiritual development dramatically affects us post-birth, in every stage of our lives. But it's one of the last items on the pre-birth spiritual development checklist that really impacts us. This is the Great Oath that's given to the soul -- right before it fuses with the body. What is the oath all about? And why does a soul need an oath in the first place? In this very special session of Kabbalah & Coffee, we decode the soul's epic pledge and discover the impact it has on us today.
